February 12, 201610 yr Another 2016 number 1, another bland song I'll probably never go back to and this time with awfully trite lyrics, sigh :( I'm praying for the Brits to give us SOMETHING to save us from this sea of mediocrity that's been dominating the top half of the charts this year. Edited February 12, 201610 yr by Chez Wombat
February 12, 201610 yr Joining the GREATS, Aqua and Whigfield *.* Good to see 7 Years at No.1, really seems to have risen out of nowhere, seeing as most climbers to No.1 often have a few weeks in the top five beforehand.
February 12, 201610 yr Glad 7 Years is number one - been number one in my personal chart for 5 weeks so it deserves to smash imo ;) Glad to see twenty one pilots and G-Eazy x Bebe Rexha entering - hopefully both can climb!
February 12, 201610 yr never known such a consistently horrific start to a year for #1 singles ~ this DIRE homogenized prepubescent whining over acoustic guitar sound seriously needs to die a speedy death~ :manson: :puke: :manson:
February 12, 201610 yr never known such a consistently horrific start to a year for #1 singles ~ this DIRE homogenized prepubescent whining over acoustic guitar sound seriously needs to die a speedy death~ :manson: :puke: :manson: The lead singer of Lukas Graham is 27 so that'd be quite a biological rarity if true. :o But yes, more homogenised dance covers of songs better left in their original glory instead please. :mansoncheer:
February 12, 201610 yr 7 Years is piano led anyway isn't it, rather than acoustic guitar.... :lol: The #1s this year have all been rather excellent imo, 7 Years only adds to that! Emotional, passionate and touching :heart:
February 12, 201610 yr Pillow Talk doesn't sound that much like the other #1's so far this year either
February 12, 201610 yr What?"How about neither" in response to this: this DIRE homogenized prepubescent whining over acoustic guitar sound seriously needs to die a speedy death~ :manson: :puke: :manson:But yes, more homogenised dance covers of songs better left in their original glory instead please. :mansoncheer:
February 12, 201610 yr The lead singer of Lukas Graham is 27 so that'd be quite a biological rarity if true. :o But yes, more homogenised dance covers of songs better left in their original glory instead please. :mansoncheer: literally lost in translation :heehee: ~ the song sounds like it was written by a 12-year-old and the overtly hackneyed lyrics barely have the requisite sophistication to be aimed at that particular market~ :mellow: true jonas blue isn’t the cure for insomnia that bieber/mendes/zany/graham :zzz: :zzz: :zzz: have perfected~ ^_^ 7 Years is piano led anyway isn't it, rather than acoustic guitar.... :lol: minor variations on the same terminally dull theme~ :P

I just think your argument about this year's #1s sounding the same doesn't hold for various reasons. :P
